求助：两道题看着蛮像的

og10 SC 38题
Scientists have observed large concentrations of
heavy-metal deposits in the upper twenty centimeters of Baltic Sea sediments, which are consistent with the
growth of industrial activity there.
(A) Baltic Sea sediments, which are consistent with the growth of industrial activity there
(B) Baltic Sea sediments, where the growth of industrial activity is consistent with these findings
(C) Baltic Sea sediments, findings consistent with its growth of industrial activity
(D) sediments from the Baltic Sea, findings consistent with the growth of industrial activity in the area
(E) sediments from the Baltic Sea, consistent with the growth of industrial activity there

og10 SC 39题
For members of the seventeenth-century Ashanti nation in Africa, animal-hide shields with wooden frames
were essential items of military equipment, a method to protect warriors against enemy arrows and spears.
(A) a method to protect
(B) as a method protecting
(C) protecting
(D) as a protection of
(E) to protect

38题选D，39题选C
看了题解，感觉蛮奇怪的：为什么38要findings这个名词来为consistent提供解释对象？而39题直接用protecting来说明animal-hide shields with wooden frames的作用？难道形容词必须找个名词做依托？分词结构就能直接对前句进行解释了？prep笔记中只收了39题的说。。。求助与各位大大们。。。

多谢大大，解释得淋漓尽致。这个同位语修饰和分词/形容词修饰一直把我搞得很莫名，这下明白了。

og10 SC 38题
Scientists have observed large concentrations of
heavy-metal deposits in the upper twenty centimeters of Baltic Sea sediments, which are consistent with the
growth of industrial activity there.
(A) Baltic Sea sediments, which are consistent with the growth of industrial activity there    -----which直接修饰了临近的名词sediments，这个修饰是错误的，句子本意想指的是工业活动的增长造成了重金属的增长，which本来想指代的是deposits，并且这个there也分不清到底指的是哪里，如果指代了sediment，句意上就没有意义了。
(B) Baltic Sea sediments, where the growth of industrial activity is consistent with these findings----这里也反了一个同样的问题，就是where到底是指哪里，按它紧跟着sediments的形式，就变成了修饰和指代sediments，sediments本身怎么会有工业增长呢。
(C) Baltic Sea sediments, findings consistent with its growth of industrial activity----这个选项还是比较接近答案的，但是它的its没有可指代的东西
(D) sediments from the Baltic Sea, findings consistent with the growth of industrial activity in the area----正确答案：findings作为deposits的同位语（越过了前面一长串的状语修饰）; in the area 也清楚地和前面的baltic sea相对应。
(E) sediments from the Baltic Sea, consistent with the growth of industrial activity there----consistent 本身是个形容词，放在句尾的时候，修饰的是临近的名词（这个作用可以参考常见的过去分词当形容词放在句末的作用），就变成了Baltic Sea consistent with the growth of industrial activity。


38题最后的部分是一个同位语，逗号之前的部分其实都差不多，主要看逗号后面的部分。这两道题确实有相似之处，但是findings是个名词，在这里做同位语用，而下面的protecting是分词，做定语用，还是有一些差别的。这题使用同位语的好处体现在，清楚地摆出了两个相比较相对应的对象 findings和 growth.


og10 SC 39题
For members of the seventeenth-century Ashanti nation in Africa, animal-hide shields with wooden frames
were essential items of military equipment, a method to protect warriors against enemy arrows and spears.
(A) a method to protect    --method和 items不是同一样东西，在这里做同位语不合适
(B) as a method protecting---与A一样
(C) protecting-----现在分词放在句末，可以修饰句子的主语（也有人说是修饰临近的名词 equipment) ，正确
(D) as a protection of ----与A,B一样，items不等于protection
(E) to protect ----不定式的修饰必须是限制性的，不应该有逗号

39题，最后的这个部分是用来修饰和进一步详述 animal-hide shields 的。
